Cumberland Multicultural Community Services

Cumberland Multicultural Community Services is the new trading name of Granville Multicultural Community Centre Incorporated. We will continue to offer the same variety of community, educational and social activities and services to residents in the local area.

We exist to improve the lives of children, families and communities through the provision of information, education, advocacy and connections. Everyone is welcome and our specialty is working with culturally diverse communities. We care about the wellbeing of those who live, work, learn and play in our community.

We are a not-for-profit incorporated association governed by a volunteer management committee.
